1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundA prospective, multicenter trial has been designed to evaluate the impact of inducible ischemia by stress single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in diabetic patients and to define the role of SPECT in assessing the cardiac risk in such patients. This report presents the details and implications of the Impact of Inducible Ischemia by Stress SPECT (IDIS) trial design. METHODS AND

resultsBetween January 2002 and September 2005, 1006 consecutive patients (649 men and 357 women; mean age, 63 +/- 9 years) with at least a 5-year history of type 2 diabetes mellitus were enrolled. All patients underwent stress-rest sestamibi SPECT imaging with physical exercise (n = 573) or dipyridamole (n = 433). SPECT studies will be analyzed by use of a 17-segment scoring system to calculate left ventricular ejection fraction, summed stress score, summed rest score, and summed difference score. The SPECT study will be considered abnormal if the summed stress score is 3 or greater. Patients with abnormal studies will be considered to have ischemia if the summed difference score is 2 or greater.

conclusionThe results of this trial should help to define the role of SPECT in assessing cardiac risk in diabetic patients. Furthermore, this trial will prospectively evaluate subsequent patient outcome during long-term follow-up.
